Overview

The complexity of having lots of data in lots of different locations is a familiar scenario for enterprises. How do you manage it efficiently?

How do you ensure it’s secure? And how do you provide access to that data, when and where your business needs it most?

Modern cloud-based tools present the perfect answer, but to use them you would need to move all the data to their cloud and that’s just not possible. 

And if it was, then we know from research that that half of the organisations who try, don’t manage it without problems, like exposing the data, which is the worst possible outcome.

NetApp solve this problem by bringing it all together on one platform, which makes it always available and easily consumable, no matter where your data is. 

So you can put your data and applications where you want, avoiding lock-in and reducing costs. With the flexibility to burst upwards when complex workloads like SAP need it.

But you need more than NetApp and that’s where BT comes in.

First we can provide you with the different locations to put your data. In fact, we lead the way in the number of options we provide for global private and public clouds.

Second we provide the connectivity to these different locations, connectivity is crucial for experience and we have pre-connected up all the locations you need to store your data and applications, with the ability to flex up when you need it.

Finally, this is complicated. If it was easy then everybody could do it. That’s why we deliver this as a manged service, where you can benefit from the expertise and skills we have gained from doing this for MNCs across the globe.
